Cuban Restaurants – still at the cutting edge

Monday, 25 April 2016

On my 2014 visit to Havana I suggested that Cuba could be the world’s next hot restaurant destination. Two years later there are even more interesting places to dine although I found myself returning to familiar haunts:

▲ La Guarida – the ‘lair’ or ‘hideout’ – was a good place to start, since I was in Cuba with the archaeology organization Global Heritage Fund and the entrance to the restaurant feels like some sort of ruin. Or archaeology site.

◄  Then upstairs it’s flash restaurant with a cutting edge kitchen that wouldn’t be out of place in Sydney, New York or London.

 

 

 

 

The artwork would fit right in as well. ▼

▲ And ditto for the rootop bar.

◄ Casa Miglis was also a return trip, there’s clearly a place for everything on the Cuban restaurant scene including Swedish-Cuban fusion.

 

 

 

 

Art also features at Paladar los Mercaderes. ▼
